The Theme File Editor<\/a> allows WordPress users to customize their selected theme’s underlying code directly within the dashboard.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This means that with just a little bit of coding know-how, you can have maximum control<\/strong> over the look <\/em>and feel <\/em>of your website.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Typically, the theme editor can be accessed by navigating to Appearance <\/strong>> Theme File Editor<\/strong>. At least that’s when things are working properly!<\/em> For a number of different reasons, you may find that this option is no longer available.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you discover the WordPress theme editor missing from the Appearance drop-down menu, first ensure your selected theme is fully activated. Next, check your security plugin settings and then update the ‘wp.config.php’ file directly. Finally, deactivate all plugins and reactivate them one by one to isolate the source of the error.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

IMPORTANT NOTE<\/strong>: Some users will notice that their Plugin File Editor <\/em>is also missing. Following these same four troubleshooting steps will enable both the theme and plugin file editor.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
